This week, Mike and Alex are incredibly excited to be joined by the creators of Revival, Tim Seeley and Mike Norton. They start by discussing the origin of Revival (it helps when you work in the same studio) and how it evolved to incorporate multiple different genres, all working under the umbrella of "rural noir." Tim and Mike then dive into on how and where they feel Revival fits in (or doesn't) with some of the other zombie/vampire/monster/horror stories that were becoming increasingly popular at the time, and what they did as an intentional zags away from what they saw as traditional horror comics. They guys also discuss the cover art of Jenny Frison and its importance to the series, the sometimes uncomfortable prescience of Revival, and how they might approach the same subject matter differently if they were to tackle it today versus a dozen years ago. Finally, Tim and Mike say what they can about the upcoming Revival TV adaption on Syfy that, at the time of this recording, is currently in production and speak on the comic's journey to get to this point.
